First Turning

This was my first real turning. Jay Andrews at Laguna Tools taught and turned it with me in Richmond at the Woodturners Convention in 2008. I think is when it was. I had never used a lathe before and it was instant love. Jay was/is awesome. He introduced me to all the tools and many techniques. I used the Laguna 18/47 which is an awesome lathe.

Thanks Jay for getting me hooked onto turning.

Would if I could. Currently my pockets are really empty. Wanter to purchase the 80 and 120 grit norton stones for a bench grinder. Went to my main store Amazon. Found serious negative cricicism by users of this particular stone. Went to another site, found different manufacturer. The site was unable to process my card!

Cancelled it, until I have more time, and money.

Do have a work sharp and recently sharpened 30 chisels. About half of my goal. Saw a youtube video sharpening gouges on it. Using a special attatchment? More money. LOL!

I’ll get there, just gotta be here? I need to meditate Tooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmm! :-0

I am really sorry to hear about your circumstances. I can say I can relate about the card. If you have a WorkSarpe already the they do have an attachment that works with the Tormek jigs. I would go that route when you get the money, it will be more cost effective.

Wow, 30 chisels, your going to need more sharpening paper.
